Well , I'm doing my movie news search & saw this very interesting article , please give it a read & share your thoughts .
I'm sure most of you know who this garbage is :
About a year and a half ago, twelve people were shot to death and countless more were injured during a midnight screening of The Dark Knight Rises. The shooter had a score to settle with the larger world and tragically decided to use that particular theater in Aurora, Colorado as his platform. Lawsuits and a whole lot of sadness followed, as well as a plenty of conversations about instituting security protocols.
Earlier, a man in Florida was shot to death at a screening of Lone Survivor. The victim apparently was texting his daughter before the movie began, and the gunman decided it was a capital offense. Then, for good measure, he shot the texter’s wife too because apparently, being associated with a texter is also a capital offense. Thankfully, doctors expect her to make a full recovery from her injuries, but even so, she’s now left to pick up the pieces and explain to her children that their father is never coming home.
That’s two high profile shootings in less than two years. Add those tragedies to the fights and heated arguments that occasionally take place in theaters and it paints a pretty ugly picture. In the coming days and weeks, the calls for metal detectors and security guards will likely ring louder and louder. It’s easy to see why too. It’s only natural to call into question our own safety when someone dies during an activity we frequently take part in, and it’s only natural to want a sense of peace and comfort inside a place we take our families.
Oops , I meant detectors , it's late here .
